contextual study / concordance



Helaman 6:1

And it came to pass that when the sixty and second year

of the reign of the judges had ended,

all these things had happened

and the Lamanites had become, the more part of them, a righteous people,

insomuch that their righteousness did exceed that of the Nephites,

because of their firmness and their steadiness in the faith.


Helaman 6:2

For behold, there were many of the Nephites

who had become hardened and impenitent and grossly wicked,

insomuch that they did reject the word of God

and all the preaching and prophesying which did come among them.


Helaman 6:3

Nevertheless, the people of the church did have great joy

because of the conversion of the Lamanites,

yea, because of the church of God, which had been established among them.

And they did fellowship one with another,

and did rejoice one with another,

and did have great joy.


Helaman 6:4

And it came to pass that

many of the Lamanites did come down into the land of Zarahemla,

and did declare unto the people of the Nephites the manner of their conversion,

and did exhort them to faith and repentance.


Helaman 6:5

Yea, and many did preach with exceedingly great power and authority,

unto the bringing down many of them into the depths of humility,

to be the humble followers of God and the Lamb.


Helaman 6:6

And it came to pass that many of the Lamanites did go into the land northward;

and also Nephi and Lehi went into the land northward, to preach unto the people.

And thus ended the sixty and third year.
